I have s3d and I found the /Data/Library/Torpedoes.* files so I was digging around but I couldn't figure out a way to add them to my list of available torpedoes. How can I get these sweet things on my Type-VII? Would be too much fun to find a convoy and fire a salvo from 100m down at sound contacts.

jahwillprovide...welcome to subsim.

what you are attempting is not possible. there is no way to create wire-guided, acoustical torpedoes in silent hunter.
the closest you can get is the German Type 5 or Type 7, i forget. that was an acoustic torpedo but it was slow and unreliable. The US counterpart is a Type 27.
if you want to create new and additional torpedoes, you not only have to modify the Torpedos_us.sim, zon, et al you also have to create the torpedo graphics, then add that new model as a possible selection to the set of boats on which you wish to use plus about six other things i cannot remember. yes, it is a ginormous PITA.
i apologize if i seem to be a harry-hair-shirt, but i started down a similar path a year or two ago and gave up. i was going to compromise and just fiddle with the acoustical settings of the existing fish but there are no acoustical settings. the performance envelope is hard-coded within SH4. don't yell at me...yell at Ubi.


you can try downloading Rockin Robbins slightly-sub-nuclear-torpedo mod and see what you can see from what he did.
